Figure 2.
The two-panel labelled A and B shows cone resistance q c in megapascal on the horizontal axis and penetration in metres on the vertical axis. Panel A shows applied D r values of 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 with curves compared to C P T 0 2. Panel B shows applied D r values of 0.65, 0.75, and 0.85 with curves compared to C P T 0 3. Each panel includes q c global and q c shallow models. A horizontal line separates the shallow zone from the transition and deep zones. Curves shift right with increasing D r.Performance of Emerson et al. (2008) for shallow depth interpretation in siliceous sand compared with Kim et al. (2015): (a) CPT-02 (Krogh et al., 2022): measured qc profile compared with qc.global (Emerson et al., 2008) and qc.shallow (Kim et al., 2015) for Dr = 0.6–0.8 (K = 2.5, K0 = K0(z)) and (b) CPT-03 (Krogh et al., 2022): measured qc profile compared with qc.global (Emerson et al., 2008) and qc.shallow (Kim et al., 2015) for Dr = 0.65–0.85 (K = 2.5, K0 = K0(z))
